Show version numbers

[kulmann]

Description

With this PR the web ui prints the package version and the backend version (if available) to the javascript console and sets them as meta generator tag in the html head. See screenshots below. There are some (known) situations where the backend version is not available. Those need to be fixed separately, this PR just makes use of the information. Only consequence is that the backend doesn't show up, so it's not an issue to fix it separately. The version of the web ui always gets shown, as it is included in the bundling process.

The product key in the version doesn't exist, yet, so for now it'll always fall back to ownCloud. I'll provide an oCIS PR so that oCIS will announce itself as product: "oCIS" in the future. For ownCloud 10 we don't need to change anything as the fallback is correct there.

Need to take a look at the code still, but yesterday was wondering if we should provide such information also to the user? Could live on the account page in the runtime for example, e.g. in a details/summary HTML tag so very subtle yet also available for less techy users?

We discussed this during the refinement and basically said that we'll have to show a lot of versions in the future. Since every extension that gets loaded from an external source comes with its own version number we'll eventually want to show all of them, which might need a dedicated "about" page in the future. But still, showing the web ui version and the backend version somewhere visible in the UI makes a lot of sense, even then. I'll create a ticket for it after christmas... thank you for bringing it up again! :-)

@kulmann rebasing on current master should make the smoke tests way more stable :)

Could you do that for me? Not at my desk
